unstashed

I knitted this cardi a few years ago now.  I haven't worn it much; mainly because I've been a bit too precious over it (a lot of time went into making this) and partly because I really didn't like the original buttons I'd sewn on it.  Time for a change.  Small details can really alter the appearance of things.  

I'd forgotten how many pretty little treasures I had stashed away in my button collection.

Bags and tins and boxes in boxes of them

These multi coloured buttons are the perfect match for the textured forest green cardigan.  I got these from MacCulloch & Wallis (off Oxford Street) back when I used to work there.
I'd completely forgotten I had them.

Now it'll definitely get worn.  I love it like it was new
